I have no idea what the reason is for this custom, but I do know that it isn’t because drivers need to look at one another.

But that isn’t the point.

You want to be part of a community, sometimes you need to do stuff you don’t like in order to remain part of the whole.

You can’t be a Satmar woman and drive. And you can’t be a Kiryat sefer man and work, and you can’t learn in BMG and wear purple shirts. It’s the price you pay for community.
